What is Evil Author Day?

This started some time back in 2010/2011 timeframe, but I’m not sure if it was on Live Journal or Dreamwidth first. And if I knew who started the insanity, I’d happily share their contact info… so you could send them love. Keira Marcos has made it a rather not-to-be-missed annual event that I really look forward to.

The original concept was to post the titles or descriptions of your in-process stuff and let people vote on what they’d like to see. I think many people have taken their own spin on how they choose what to post. Frankly, I’m total crap about taking input on what I should do, so I’m just gonna pick some stuff and go with it.

What’s the downside, and why is it evil? Well, there are no promises attached to this. I may never get back to it. There may never be more than what you see here. Or I may finish it next week. It’s read at your own risk. Seriously. I certainly welcome your feedback, but I promise that poking me continually about something doesn’t work. It may even be counterproductive.

Keira graciously shares the EAD community with me on Dreamwidth. You must be a member of the community to read.

React – Teen Wolf plus Tony DiNozzo. Gen. I call this my Come to Jesus AU. Tony is Stiles’ uncle and finds out something is up. He goes to Beacon Hills and takes care of business.

Please note: We moved from LiveJournal to Dreamwidth. I may have some bad links on this page, but everything that’s still available is over on the DW community.

My evilness is on Dreamwidth this year because Keira Marcos is awesome and is sharing space with me on her Evil Author DreamWidth community. You must be a member of the community to read the posts! You don’t have to friend me; you just need to join the EAD community.

Intuitive – NCIS, Tony/Gibbs, Psychic!AU. I posted 15k of this last year but then removed it from the EBB community. The first 2.5 chapters are relatively unchanged.

Atlantis Codex: Episode 1, Discovery – Stargate: Atlantis, Ancient!Sheppards AU. This is the start of the story I worked on with Keira on the radio show. There was a plot drift and an episode drift. This first episode is done, so I could have put it on my site, but it’s part of a 2-episode arc, and it won’t be moved here permanently until the second episode is done.

My evilness will be on Dreamwidth this year. Keira Marcos has graciously allowed me to post on her Evil Author DW community. You must be a member of the community to read the posts! You don’t have to friend me on Dreamwidth or anything; you just need to join the EAD community.

Stories Posted to Live Journal:

De Novo – NCIS – Tony/Ian Edgerton (Numb3rs) – This was removed and completed. You can now find it on this site under the NCIS menu

Impetus – NCIS – This is just the first chapter of a much larger fic. It’s an NCIS/Hawaii Five-0 cross eventually. It’s very angry in places.

Redefining Normal – Psych, probably Shawn/Lassiter ~4500 words I’m working in this AU extensively, so this has been removed until the work is complete. I may repost it after Intuitive is finished, or keep it offline and finish this one as well.

My husband has been given his birthday presies (!) so I am now able to read some EAD and started with Intuitive. Unsurprisingly, I am totally hooked. I found it really absorbing even in these intial extracts which necessarily involve a lot of “set up”, which I think you have done very well. I definitely look forward to the completed work later in the year. Thank you!

I just finished reading all of the “Evil Author Day” contributions on the list. WOW!! As a reader, not a writer, I want to express my appreciation to all of you for all the fantastic “beginnings” that were presented. New or unusual pairings, great characterizations, amazing and unique plots – I am so excited and so looking forward to future chapters on any of the stories.
This has to be the absolute best EAD event ever!!! THANK YOU ALL for putting this together.

I know I’m a late poster but just found this although I’ve been reading you for about six months over and over. I love everything especially Emergence and anything NCIS, Criminal Minds and SGA specific. No matter what it is it’s great.

Hey,
Will you be posting Intuitive on the EBB page? I can’t wait to read it :X I’m in love with your other stories. I found them last month on AOU and since then I keep reading and rereading them. I’m so happy we’ll get a new one soon.

I am sorry if what I said offended you. That was not my intention. I just wanted to see if there was another way to to see them. But it is fine if you do want that since their is probably a reason why you did not post them here to start with.

Just to be absolutely clear, I’ve read your posts re AO3, and fully support your decision to pull back. That said, in the interest of clarity, has the EAD Lj hosting Emergence – Contact been shut down or locked, even to members of the community?

If so, I’ll stop worrying about technical issues on my end due to a long-abandoned LJ, and just wait for future updates. 🙂

I’m a fairly new reader that found you through AO3 bookmarks, who is now reading and re-reading everything I can find here. As an author myself I absolutely get where you are coming from, and look forward to seeing the next stories, episodes and chapters in all of your fandoms if and when you are ready to share them with us.

Thank you very much, your EAD is awesome mostly Atlantis Codex, I adore Alex and his relashionship with his big brother John and of course rodney, him and Alex best friend it’s so cool but good luck at John

I am a huge fan of your work, and would love to read your newest stories, especially this year’s evil author day submissions, however the links for the chapters bring up a live journal page of which apparently I can’t access nor is there any visible form to apply for access, so I’d like to know how I can read your works. Pleas and thank you.

You must be a member of the community to read the posts. Some people tried just watching it, but you have to actually join. You can do that a couple ways but first you have to be logged in to Live Journal. From there, you can go straight to this link and click join: http://www.livejournal.com/community/join.bml?comm=evilauthorday

or go to the main EAD page and click the join button at the top of the page. The join button is on the top left and has four arrows pointing to a dot. http://evilauthorday.livejournal.com/

Hi Jilly, is it just me having link issues or did the Evil Author Day livejournal get deleted? Is there another place to find your EAD stories or do I just need to wait until you’re finished with them and post them here? Thanks!

Love EAD! Thank you for taking the time to make the list of all the authors EAD. I just discovered them at the beginning of the year & have found a number of authors that are new to me who I have loved reading.

Hello
I’ll keep trying to read your Intuitive story but I can’t seem to get any of the chapter links to work. Have the links broken or is there a problem on my end?
Love your other NCIS stories especially Vicious. Are there any continuing stories of this or was that it?
Cheers, Heidi

I love your EAD stories bits and author round up. Due to my ill health and my father’s recent death, I need something to feel good about. I know all these story bits will be a big help. Thanks so much!

Thank you SO much for doing this list every year. For *reasons*, I’m only just now getting to EAD. I was trying to use Google-Fu to find postings, when I remembered “Jilly does a list!!” and sped on over. You are a wonderful writer and a blessing to fandom for your graciousness in maintaining this list. Thank you!!!
